Chapter 38: The Special Blood
The unexpected soft voice from the person entering the main tent made all the men turn their heads.
Filling their sights, the commander’s little wife stood before the tent flap with a severe face. She stepped up to the front as the men’s eyes darted at her. The princess had heard the knights’ arguments and raced in, fearing the outcome of wiping out the innocents.
"My lady, what are you doing here?" Eli stood up and asked her.
Being a civilian, the commander’s wife had no right to attend any knights’ meetings or interfere with military affairs.
"I’ve something crucial to tell you!" she said as she rushed ahead to the men.
"My lady, you shouldn’t be here. It’s best if you return to your tent. Let me escort you back," said Damon.
He rose and strode fast to her, blocking the commander’s wife from stepping further.
"No, wait! Hear me first! I have a suggestion that can help!" she insisted.
Her round eyes darted to the knight, sparkling with determination. She was not intimidated by the taller man, who had a larger build than she did.
"Sir McQuinn, please give way to the lady. Let us listen to her suggestion," requested Ayden. Knowing Anna was an intelligent lady, the assistant healer wanted her opinion. If there were better ways to solve the problem, it would benefit them.
Adhering to the assistant healer’s wish, the knight moved aside, allowing the princess to approach the rectangular table where the men were sitting.
